Student Center and Activities

Student Center and Activities (SCA) contributes to our vibrant campus life by igniting and encouraging opportunities for student engagement; empowering students to create and connect to the St. Kate’s community.

Together with our programming, advising, and services, SCA facilitates students in their recognition and development of their leadership capacity, social and civic responsibility, and personal evolution.

We aim to create a “living room” for our campus by providing relevant and key resources that enhance the student experience while ensuring that students are always at the heart of the Coeur de Catherine.

​Honors & Awards Ceremony

Each spring, St. Catherine University hosts the Honors and Awards Ceremony to honor student achievement in academics and leadership. The event begins with a reception that includes displays highlighting student award winners' accomplishments. This is followed by a formal program, which allows individual departments and the University as a whole to present awards recognizing student achievement.

Among the many honors bestowed at the ceremony, the University recognizes students through the All-University Student Leadership Awards. These awards recognize students' contributions to co-curricular and academic life at St. Kate's, their growth in leadership roles, and their involvement in campus life.

Clubs and Organizations

The Student Center and Activities Office encourages participation in clubs and organizations as an excellent way to experience personal growth, meet new friends, share common interests with other students, and have some fun outside of the classroom.

With more than sixty clubs and organizations chartered at St. Kate's, you’re sure to find a group that’s right for you.
